Chapter 39 Memories of "Take Me Away"
The train sped along the neon track, and violent sparks flew where it connected with the gravity body.
The sound of iron colliding was harsh. Xu An silently blocked his ears and saw that the speed of the train suddenly slowed down. The glass was broken by the safety hammer, and grenade was thrown out one after another!
Do these bionic people want to die with them?
Outside the neon pipes, spherical AIs are densely packed, surrounding the pipes tightly. As long as there is a hole, they will pour in like a spring.
"It looks like Lin Yu has activated the self-destruct function." Xu An sighed softly, sat up, and pressed the headset: "You guys block the grenades below. Oh, and remember to use your supernatural powers to weave a protective net. I'll set off fireworks for you to watch."
The flashing sound of a grenade about to explode could be heard from all around. Jie Shuqin and Baili Yunle did not dare to hesitate. They adjusted their special abilities to the maximum level, and a light blue transparent membrane enveloped the four of them.
The moment the protective net was covered, the alarm flashed rapidly, and there was a dazzling fire and explosion accompanied by the sound of neon pipes breaking. The spherical AI rushed in like mad and turned into ashes in the surging flames.
In a flash, Xu An leaped up, and a red light flashed in his eyes the moment he opened them. The mental wave attack was so powerful that it caused the space to be deformed for a moment. While his brain was experiencing a strong sense of dizziness, the densely packed spherical AI in the sky suddenly exploded in an instant.
From the inside out, in the flames of the exploding grenade, sparks fell sparsely, smashing the neon pipes to pieces.
A raging fire instantly ignited, boiling magma gushed out of the ground, the steel machinery was burned with a sizzling sound, the bionic people were quickly reduced to ashes in the fire, and the stench of burning was everywhere.
As one side set the fire, the red lights of self-destruct alarms began to flash inexplicably everywhere. Spherical AIs blanketed the sky, swirling around the tall buildings, and exploded one after another amidst the mechanical countdown.
The sky was lit up by the brilliant spherical AI, and the sound of the explosion made a buzzing sound in the ears. The moment the protective net was broken, several white feathers floated in the explosion.
The next second, a crisp snap of fingers stood out amid the explosion, and a scarlet blood mist enveloped the sky. The gravity body's rapid fall came to an abrupt halt, and the alarm slowly stopped. Jie Shuqin opened her eyes in a daze, and saw a pair of snow-white wings that seemed to be shining among the sparks falling from the sky.
One after another, flames were projected onto her face. Xu An looked back in the sky full of stars. She had not had time to wipe the blood from the corner of her mouth. The crystal core on the side of her neck flickered violently, but her face remained indifferent. She just quietly and silently pulled the gravity body, and then slowly exhaled.
It has been a long time since Xu An used his supernatural powers on such a large scale.
When was the last time? She clearly remembered that it was the day Yin Shu actually died.
Xu An had lived for over a hundred years, or at least that's how long she remembered. Ever since she was rescued, gravely injured, by humans, her memories consisted solely of a gleaming white ceiling and some truly glowing circles. She was confused for a long time before she realized these glowing circles were actually called lamps.
Humans always injected various drugs into her body. After each injection, she would fall into a short coma. When she woke up again, Xu An would feel that there was an obvious gap in her body.
She wanted to check, but found that her hands and feet were locked with a strange chain, her supernatural powers were completely suppressed, her body was in great pain, and every time she moved, she felt a pain like an ant piercing her heart.
Xu An didn't know how long she had been in this place, because no matter when she was awake, the place was always bright. The only way to judge time was the wrinkles on people's faces and the increasingly thick paper in their hands.
However, she rarely saw humans in this small room, but she could feel that behind the seemingly closed walls around her, there were pairs of eyes falling on her.
Gradually, she felt less pain, and the chains on her body gradually extended, allowing her to occasionally walk out of bed. The conditions that triggered [Dissolution] were suppressed here, but the slowly healing wounds on her body told Xu An that these humans had not harmed her. So, she began to wonder what they would do next, and even began to observe them in return.
Sometimes, humans would secretly inject her with anesthetic while she was sleeping and then push her into the observation room for observation; sometimes, humans would secretly place various different ground plants in the room and then stare at the ups and downs of the iron box next to her; other times, a human would sit in front of her and babble in words she couldn't understand, and every time she repeated it, the human would be particularly happy.
The first words this human taught her were: "You are 0302, and I am your supervisor."
But everything changed when she spread her wings.
She no longer had her own independent space, and she rarely had moments of clarity. On the day she was transferred to the laboratory, she heard a commotion outside, as if something heavy had fallen to the ground. Xu An knew that these humans were fighting, and they were fighting for her.
Soon, Xu An was overwhelmed by experiment after experiment. Her limbs and neck were chained, and she was locked in a dark room without lights. No human sat in front of her, babbling incomprehensible words, but only a string of repetitive numbers: 0302.
Her crystal core was forcibly injected with a superpower inhibitor, and every time she violently resisted, she was injected with a larger dose of the superpower inhibitor. Without the resistance of superpowers, the wounds on her body that were not yet fully recovered attacked her like a flood and a beast. She fell asleep in pain and woke up in pain again.
Just when Xu An thought this was hell, a sudden burst of sunlight shone in. Having not seen the light for a long time, Xu An staggered. Then, inhibitors, anesthetics, and other drugs were injected into the side of her neck. The pain was so severe that her pupils lost focus, and her hands were quickly restrained.
She was chained to the experimental bed, with lights shining on her from all directions. Her eyes were forced open, and then Xu An saw several small iron pieces reaching out and digging out her eyeballs.
She heard those people say, "Her eye cells are the best place to stimulate the awakening value of her superpowers."
The bloody eyeball rolled to the ground, Xu An's whole body twitched, the crystal core on the side of her neck flashed a dazzling light, and with a low roar, the sound of clothes tearing was heard, and she spread her wings.
But as soon as he started to unfold it, Xu Anjiu regretted it.
Because she could sense the extreme excitement of the people around her, and the ghostly whispers: "If only humans could have wings..."
Xu An's eyes widened. She struggled to remove the chains, but someone grabbed her wings first. Then, the sound of a sharp weapon being pulled out was particularly harsh. Xu An clearly heard the sound of her bones breaking. First, a nerve suddenly snapped, and then the pain came.
She could feel the perverted excitement of humans, the gurgling blood, and the eyeballs rolling on the ground, but she could no longer feel her own wings.
On the inside of the shoulder blade, the two broken bloody holes continued to bleed.
Xu An was violently turned over, and she knew where she was going next.
The hair on the side of his neck was peeled off and the sharp blade cut his skin. Amid the stench and dizziness, Xu An heard a voice.
"You're openly defying the higher-ups by secretly researching military experiment 0302?! Arrest them!"
The blade's movement trembled and pierced her crystal core.
Xu An's whole body trembled, and the crystal core flashed violently. The near-death suffocation forced her to activate [Dissolution], but she was blocked by the inhibitor. Her body was swelled by the energy that had nowhere to vent, and it reached its peak in an instant. Amid the noisy crowd, the entire laboratory exploded.
All humans, androids, and experimental subjects were affected, and [Dissolution] was triggered on a large scale, allowing Xu An to clearly perceive every person who died because of her, including the researcher who taught her to speak and was locked in the room.
Heavy rain fell from the sky, and she crawled out of the ruins amid lightning and thunder.
His chest, neck, and back were covered with dense wounds.
The heavy rain interfered with her judgment. Xu An didn't know where she was or what was around her. She just fled subconsciously, but the more she fled, the clearer the figures of those who died in vain became.
Some were about to get off work and reunite with their families, some were pacing the room worried about her safety, some were terrified, or some were excited. She was overwhelmed by these emotions, and in the midst of silent crying, she suddenly heard a voice, the voice of the person who taught her to speak.
Xu An struggled to crawl over. The closer he got, the clearer the sound became.
"Teacher, you know the consequences of taking Yin Xiangrong out of the early childhood training center without permission. No one wants this to become a handle on you in the future."
Her white dress stood out against the black automatic umbrella. Xu An heard her sigh softly, then replied gently, "Although Xiangrong was a mistake I made when I was young, she shouldn't have been raised to be a twisted lunatic. Don't worry, Ran Yue, I know what to do."
When the call was disconnected, Xu An finally crawled to her feet. When she was about to leave, he grabbed her trouser legs and said almost crying, "Supervisor...you are still alive..."
"Take me away..."
After waking up, Xu An realized she had mistaken the person. When she learned that every human had a name, Xu An regretted not asking her supervisor's name. But whenever she felt regretful, Yin Shu would sit by her side and say, "Everyone has regrets in their lives."
"If you really miss her, draw her."
Yin Shu had been with her longer than her supervisor and had taught her more. Yin Shu was a very gentle and patient person. He treated Yin Xiangrong with tenderness and even more so with her. He was even more forgiving towards those who had hurt him. For example, he was the one who transformed her into a different species, Lin Yu.
When Xu An found the unconscious Yin Shu in the tower, she had turned into a beastly alien.
Human bullets destroyed her body, and Lin Yu arbitrarily placed her consciousness in the alien body. When Xu An asked her again if she hated them, Yin Shu said to her: "Even if they didn't exist, I would have to die, Xu An."
"Only if I die can the base take off and humanity have a future."
"Xu An, please promise me one last thing. Watch the base take off for me."
